The Flying Belgian
Third Tall
As I've said previously, when talking about players height measure 1 or 2 cm between your thumb and forefinger and then ask yourself if that's going to make much of a difference. Style of play, footy nous, work ethic, skill, composure and feel for the game are a far greater asset than a players height. I'm not saying it's irrelevant - obviously Dayne Zorko's never going to hold down CHB (although Campbell Brown did for at least one season with the Hawks) - but it goes hand in hand with other qualities.
I know that wasn't your assertion cotter101 in your post so this isn't a crack on you, but there's there seems to be a fixation with some on how high a guy stands, especially with KP players. "Our own" Patfull should be evidence that it's not the be-all and end-all. Likewise the assertion that a bloke can't play FF if they're under 6'4".
